Have you ever tuned up your ukulele and played one chord in tune then switch to another chord and it plays out of tune? The strings are stretched and the open strings are in tune, but for some reason that second chord plays out of tune… Well friends, that is what is called poor intonation! There are many issues that cause poor intonation and Lanikai's TunaUke Technology solves them all. The first is the Compensated Nut: Between the four strings the differences in string width and tension are substantial. By compensating the distance between the first fret and the nut we are able to make open chords sound as smooth as silk. The second is the Movable Saddle: Traditional straight saddles on a ukulele or any other fretted instrument are detrimental to good intonation. Lanikai solved this by developing movable saddle technology to allow the player to adjust the amount of compensation for each string.
